Usually I'm chasing a signup bonus but occasionally I have some real large purchase that I can throw onto apple pay.)

The USB AR is one of the most underrated cards, perhaps because bloggers don't get rewarded for pushing it. It's the card I recommend to my friends who want to "keep it simple" and carry only 2-3 cards.
